What text size font are you using for your system font. If under System 7, go to the Display control panel and ensure it is set to "smaller - 100% (default)". IIRC under XP it should be set to "Normal - 96 dpi".

I haven't (deliberately) changed any text fonts, but I did notice that the text for the adjust screen resolution seemed significantly larger.

How do I get to the Display control panel in XP?

In XP, you can change fonts, but not font sizes (?), so I took a look in the BftB pdf manual for some help, but found it was greatly magnified, so I reduced it for "normal" viewing and voila, my sidebar issue was solved.

I still can't believe it!
